Zoom levels are to some extent already tied to function keys. Most other things don't have F ket or ALT key sequences.
you may be able to create some macros (xdotool) that you invoke with the keyboard, but that could be dependent on the specific location of windows, number of entries in a list, etc and that could make things very finicky. If you're not familiar with Motif, there are some key sequences that usually start with the ALT key that trigger menus, etc. If you'll notice the xastir File menu, the F is underlined - this means you can hold the ALT key, press F, and the menu will drop down. So I could hit ALT-F, then C, then A to bring up the audio alarms dialog box. then i can use tab to switch between items on that dialog. Many (most?) dialogs do not have full functionality with keyboard shortcuts; you'll have to move and click a mouse sooner or later. So I guess the answer is "it depends on what you want to do". the pi has some GPIOs that you can wire to buttons and script button presses (to e.g. run a program) and do the job an order of magnitude (or two) cheaper than a streamdeck. -j On Fri, Apr 17, 2020 at 10:07 AM Brian <[email protected]> wrote: > Is it possible (for a non-programmer) to use a streamdeck with Xastir to > do things like start/stop/re-start interfaces, change zoom levels, etc?
